3rd 7 (1) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran who is a multiple winner, from 7.5f to 1m4f, at Beverley; however, latest effort (here) doesn't suggest his old legs are crying out for this 3.5f drop back in trip. |

4th 5 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran who is 6-23 at Beverley, the most recent success last August in last 1m4f attempt; could go well returned to this scenario with Catterick reappearance (7f) under his belt. |

5th 7 (7) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All six of his wins in Britain, and all ten of his outings last season, have come at Beverley; won over 7.4f/1m4f last summer but this 10yo lacks a recent outing and hasn't really shone on his three previous visits here. |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Made light of a seven-month absence when making all in 1m2f Doncaster handicap 27 days ago; up 5lb but she's not taken lightly with this return to further a likely plus. |

1st 1 (9) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Progressive as a 3yo, winning at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) and Leicester (1m4f, good); below par on her final start in 2025 but she reportedly boiled over in the preliminaries; still has low mileage; market useful with the stable also running Myrrh. |

5th 4 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has progressed with each run this year, winning twice before another creditable effort when second at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) 25 days ago; same mark here and she may not have stopped improving. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Recent form has been patchy, but he's now 5lb lower than when winning over C&D in May; each-way claims if he can reproduce that sort of form; stable also runs Hosanna Power. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Both wins at 1m2f, on good to firm and the AW; third at Beverley last month before struggling in a Class 4; could go well, though has mostly steered clear of slow ground. |

12th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has won her last two starts over C&D 133 days apart; up another 3lb in her hat-trick bid and she has to be taken very seriously. |
3/1 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well beaten over inadequate 1m on comeback last year but she came into her own when upped to 1m4f in the summer, winning back-to-back turf races; had seemed rather becalmed after but she won nicely over C&D when last seen in December; should be further openings for her off 2lb higher. |
7/2 |

21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent since returning to turf in May including wins at Salisbury and Leicester (both 1m4f, good to firm), but does handle soft ground; ran well when second of 13 at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago and although further may suit her best, this should be truly run; high on list. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run stretches back to July 2023 but he ended 2025 in good form and his reappearance at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago was a positive one; stepping back up in distance is a positive but he could do with the ground drying out. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Serial winner in his younger days but been dry in almost three years; does have a comeback spring victory to his name but all other wins came in the second half of the year and he may need this at his age back from five months off. |

6th 2 (3) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Pipped at Chester (1m4f, good) in July and returned to form at Southwell (upped to 1m6f, AW) 15 days ago, getting off the mark at 14th attempt; back up 5lb but may have more to offer at this trip. |
2/1 |
|
6 (9) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Just missed out at Chester (12.3f, good) in July but her form has slipped in the wrong direction in three subsequent runs; edging back down the weights but she's now 0-13 and has stamina to prove at this new trip. |
10/1 |
